Wow , such transparency. Thank you for this sis -

I didn’t want to write this...⁣⁣
This was one story that I wanted to keep to myself,to own,to hide... But when the Holy Spirit says share,⁣⁣ You’ve got to share it... My journey with pornography started as early as borrowing my neighbor’s phone to watch porn, to letting porn be my stress reliever & then to doing it because I couldn’t help it.
And by couldn’t help it, I mean, feeling like I can’t breath, move or do anything until I had watched porn! Feeling my whole body physically shake the more I resisted the desire to watch porn⁣⁣. Mine was no ordinary kind of addiction. It’s the stop-whatsoever-you-are-doing-irrespective-of-where-you-are-and-find-the-safest-place-to-indulge kind of addiction.
It was the miss classes & miss hanging out with friends just to watch porn kind of addiction.
And yes, I was a Christian, Holy Ghost filled and serving in church while all these happened...
So imagine the Shame and condemnation that came after each event... I’m not sharing this because I know the solution to pornography addiction, a lot of people say Just Pray, but there are some of us that have prayed, cried, wept but still find ourselves going back to it⁣⁣... So no, I don’t know the solution, but I’m going to say keep fighting, don’t give up or give in just because you are tired of asking God to help you and it’s feels like help is not coming... Addiction to porn is like an endless rabbit hole, the more you feed it, the more you get in! And just like whoever can relate to this, I’m still struggling to come out of that rabbit hole...

I appreciate how art lets you get things out even if it’s scary and vulnerable.. I visited the Opalka Gallery today & this was in a book on display.
Lately I’ve been afflicted with an intense fear of death. I’m not sure why...
Maybe it’s because I’m turning 25 & the amount of death I’ve experienced through young friends and family over the years has been difficult to grasp... it’s weird cause I remember the days where I didn’t want to live at all & now I want to experience everything head on before my time comes.
I’m trying to work through this feeling, I talk to God about it, I’m open with the people close to me about it... Sometimes just getting it out there is the first step to moving forward.
What are your fears? •

I still miss you, I do. But I guess in the end I‘m glad we only found each other to fall apart. If we‘d never tried, I would have never known. I would have spent my nights lying awake, wondering what could’ve been if I‘d only been brave enough to take a step towards you.
And I did, I did it with my arms opened wide and my eyes pressed shut so tight, I swear I could see the stars. It was scary and new and dizzying, but you kept me tethered to the ground.
It was beautiful while it lasted, and I never got the impression that you weren’t treating me right, that maybe I was just too different and we weren’t right for each other.
That while I was looking for something to give me peace, you were on the hunt for your next adventure.
That while we fit so perfectly, my hand in yours, cheek pressed against cheek, what we wanted from life did not. It’s kind of sad, but it took you walking out of my life for me to finally realise my worth. For the first time I did not think I wasn’t enough or too much.
I wasn’t afraid that I said the wrong thing or acted in a way that upset you. We ended quietly, not with a crash and not with a burn. I understood that we didn’t work in the ways that mattered. And somehow, it’s right that we didn’t. Because for weeks that felt like a handful of moments, we fit together like two pieces of a whole....... @ek_unadpakshi
